On February 7, Representative Thomas Massie introduced HR 899. The bill is one sentence long and states that the U.S. Department of Education will be terminated on December 31, 2018. Representative Massie’s bill is a vivid reminder of the fact that there is no Constitutional role for the federal government in education.

From Founded On Truth:

In response, our first 2017 conference call series will focus specifically on the US DOE. In part one, Chairman Peg Luksik will explore how federal education dollars fit into overall education spending, including state and local dollars.
The conference will last no more than 30 minutes and will be available on the Founded on Truth web site for future playback. Although there is no cost for attendance, donations are greatly appreciated.
So mark your calendars for
